A History of China That is Addictive Once You Read It
by Wen Boling
About This Novel
In Li Bai's eyes, a Yang Guifei is like "the clouds are like her clothes and the flowers are like her face, and the spring breeze is blowing on the threshold and the dew is rich"; in Du Mu's eyes, she is like "the concubine riding on the red dust is laughing, no one knows that it is the lychees coming"; and in Luo Yin's eyes, it is "the man under the spring should have said something, and this time I will not blame Yang Fei." Beauty, beloved concubine, prodigal woman and scapegoat, which one is the real Concubine Yang? Chang'an City, in the Han and Tang dynasties, was the irreplaceable center of the empire and "the crown jewel of all nations" in Wang Wei's writings; in the Song Dynasty, it became a border military town; and in the late Ming Dynasty, it became a hell on earth where famine abounded and people changed their sons to eat. Wen Boling's articles contain both detailed stories and a historical perspective. They are thrilling and addictive as soon as you read them. In Wen Boling's writings, history is no longer a notebook arranged according to time, but a process of evolution of the times that runs through time and clearly understands the context. If you read history using his method, you will discover the hand behind history and thoroughly understand the past, present and future of history.

In the pile of yellowed old papers, there are the glory, glory and decline of the past, as well as the experience and wisdom that will shine into the future.

There may be different views on some events, but I still gained a lot, interpreting and sharing history from a unique leaping perspective! He is indeed our mentor!
False is not false, true is not true
It is said that the torrent of history is unstoppable, but there are always people who single-handedly ignite the indelible flame and leave a graceful glimpse of the long river of history. That is, when the dynasty changes and the people are suffering, waiting for others to save them is not feasible at least from a historical perspective. Instead, the crying children will be fed by milk.
